    I wandered slowly into the sun room‚ sliding my fingers over mantelpieces and collapsing with a big sigh‚ face down onto a conveniently placed floral couch. My mother looked up from her sewing with an amused smile‚ her short black hair shining in the misty sunlight drifting lazily through a permanently open window. A few overly ambitious green vines had already crept onto the sill and nature’s presence leaned in like a curious gardener. Mum mildly commented that a bit of dusting usually helps to

She wasn’t bad looking‚ long brown hair twisted by the maids‚ feathers adorned her she again‚ this year she was an owl‚ one of those pretty barn owls that live in my bird collection. My dress was a mess of brown and white feathers‚ I stared at the mirror and the only thing that always catches me is the sad

    Fair is foul and foul is fair Hover through the fog and filthy air” One of the main themes rampant in Macbeth is that of deception. There is a disconnect between appearance and reality. Hypocrisy is everywhere and what is good for one person may be bad for others in the play. The first scene of the play highlights this. We are introduced to the witches‚ who speak in ambiguous equivocations. The quote “Fair is foul…filthy air” portrays that what is ‘fair’ or good or wholesome for humans is ‘foul’
